FRAMES: Photo Challenge #73: Still Life

I was inspired by Connie Bickerton’s lovely photo of the trio of
fish that she entered for the previous challenge, so I have decided
that Still Life is photo challenge #73.

A Still Life is defined as: A representation of inanimate
objects, such as flowers or fruit, in painting or photography.

When most people think of Still Life, they think of a bowl of
fruit on a table. Well sure, you can photograph a bowl of fruit on
a table but your still life can be of any inanimate subject matter
that you wish. Creativity and “out of the box” thinking is as
always encouraged for this and all photo challenges.

As with all photography, the three key things to
remember are of course, composition, light and subject
matter.

Deadline for this challenge will be February
1st. and “stand-outs” will be published in the
Kitsap Sun.

You may email your entries to me: mreid@kitsapsun.com, or use
the handy Upload Photo Challenge Pix link on the right side of
this page. Please remember to include your name if you use the
handy uploader and choose the “Kitsap Frames Photo Challenge”
channel so I can find your images.

One thought on “FRAMES: Photo Challenge #73: Still Life”

I have new motivation for the year!
Goal: Better photo’s (actually try to figure out this whole lighting thing); less photo’s saved (hahhaha); more time thinking while shooting vs. lots of thinking before the shoot and less implementing while shooting.
